The rapper - who plays Glastonbury this weekend - also discusses the way their relationship has been portrayed in the media, though they're relationship status has never been confirmed by either party until now.

‘I don’t know if there’s like some confirm or deny thing with the way relationships work in the media, but everyone just calls us best friends, best friends for life, like we’re just friends hanging out.

‘It’s funny. It’s rad in some ways, it sucks in others.’

It seems that Haze is open to talk about her sexuality, though in an article she wrote for Noisey, she says that her sexual preference shouldn’t be up for discussion.

‘If
we were in a sexual situation you would know exactly who I am
sexually,’ she writes. ‘But if we’re just having a conversation you
don’t need to know what I do in private.’

Angel also discusses the social stigma she felt growing up when her family and friends discusses bisexuality.

‘I went
through so much s**t. A lot of my friends basically said, “Bisexual
people are disgusting, you don’t know what you want.” My family was the
hardest, my mum said I was going to burn in hell.’

Baldwin was previously in a relationship with surfer Slater Trout, but the
couple split in March this year after 12 months of dating.

Her
father Alec does not have a good history with the LGBT community after
he was accused of using homophobic slurs on more than a few occasions
over the last years.

It is rumoured that the alleged homophobic incidents contributed to the cancellation of his MSNBC show.
